Elf Yourself: A Gift from OfficeMax

Elf Yourself: A Gift from OfficeMax

Here is a fun little holiday time waster. Grab a picture of yourself or someone you know. Upload it to this site, quickly size it, save the picture, record your voice message (I tried twice that didn’t work) then preview your elf. I made one for myself and it came out well, very funny.

Another fun thing.

Shake The Globe. You can shake it 5 or 6 times and it cycles through some interesting images.

Remember Ralphie, well grab your red ryder and Don’t shoot Your Eye out. You have 10 shots and the object is to get as many ricochets as possible.

And then there is North Pole Dancing. You can make Santa dance about 12 different moves and create a sequence, choose the music and the scene and send that to friends.

Here is mine, may be disturbing to Maureen and anyone else with eyes.

There is also a Save the Snowman Game which is a lot like hangman but with a snowman.

You can get lost on the things to do at this site. Merry Christmas and Enjoy.

Help Dog eat Doug

Dog eat Doug is one of the web comics that I read daily. The creator, Brian Anderson is a MA resident and he has been working on getting Dog eat Doug into more newspapers. He is part of Creators Syndicate and is in a few newspaper’s all over the country. But he isn’t in a MA paper yet. I would urge you to help Brian out by sending an e-mail to the editor of your local newspaper. For subscribers to the Sun Chronicle that person would be Mike Kirby, you can contact him at mkirby@thesunchronicle.com. Also be sure to CC: Brian Anderson at brian@dogeatdoug.com. By doing so you are helping Brian out and you may get selected to win some original artwork by Brian. Here is Brian’s blog post about the contest.
